@SenWhitehouse Sheldon, hyperbolic language isn’t mental decline. It’s a form of negotiation. If you Dems weren’t constantly hysterical you would realize what Trump is doing.

I’m getting a lot of traffic about the 25th Amendment after Trump’s mad rants.  The president is facing serious mental decline; I’m with you on that.

@RepJasonCrow You’re weak, Crow.

Speaker Johnson must immediately call Congress back to end this war and stop Donald Trump’s madness.

@SpeakerPelosi Go have a stiff drink, Nancy.

"A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again." Donald Trump's instability is more clear and dangerous than ever. If the Cabinet is not willing to invoke the 25th Amendment and restore sanity, Republicans must reconvene the Congress to end this war.

@RepMikeQuigley You have your pronouns in your bio. Seriously? You Dems are weak minded. Words are not actions. Hyperbole isn’t a crime. GFY

I'm officially calling for the Cabinet to remove Trump from office under the 25th Amendment. If they can't, Congress must return from recess today and begin impeachment proceedings. Read my full statement below. quigley.house.gov/media-center/p…

@lisamurkowski Alaska can do better than electing you. RINO!

The President’s threat that “a whole civilization will die tonight” cannot be excused away as an attempt to gain leverage in negotiations with Iran. This type of rhetoric is an affront to the ideals our nation has sought to uphold and promote around the world for nearly 250 years. It undermines our long-standing role as a global beacon of freedom and directly endangers Americans both abroad and at home. The oppressive, terror-spreading regime of the Islamic Republic must be distinguished from the people and the civilization of Iran. Everyone involved—especially the President and Iran’s leaders—must de-escalate their unprecedented saber-rattling before it is too late.

@PeteButtigieg You will never be POTUS, Pete. Calm down

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something. For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

@SenWarren Calm down Liz. You need a beer and a clue. Trump’s hyperbole is just a wake up call to the Mullahs. He uses the language they understand.

We don’t know what will happen tonight: if Trump will back down or commit war crimes. But I do know that Congress has the power to stop this. Republican Leader John Thune must call the Senate back into session immediately. And Congress needs to vote to stop Trump’s war NOW.

@CAgovernor What have you done for the past 8 years except destroy your state.

Donald Trump repeatedly made a promise to the American people: no new wars. Now, he's threatening to wipe out an entire civilization.

@LangmanVince Money, his real estate portfolio is quite extensive. Tucker sold out for money. He found out it’s easier to bash the administration and embrace Islam than fight for what is right. He then uses the Bible to justify his antisemitism.

WTF happened to this guy?

@Rep_Stansbury Melanie is disturbing dumb.

This man is threatening mass killings and war crimes on social media posts. When will enough be enough? This is why the 25th Amendment and impeachment were created. These aren’t policy differences. He is threatening crimes. It’s time to invoke the 25th. But we can’t do it alone—we need our Republican colleagues to do the right thing, for this country and for the world.

@ChrisVanHollen Read this!

Trump is threatening to commit massive war crimes against the Iranian people starting at 8 pm tonight. He is completely unhinged, and it is long past time for Republicans to speak up. Congress should reconvene immediately and vote to end this war, NOW.

@KamalaHarris @gunny109t3 Everyone knows you didn’t write this yourself, Kammy. There are some pretty big words in your post so….no you didn’t.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this. Trump's recklessness is needlessly putting our brave service members in harm's way, destroying America's global standing, and making life even more unaffordable for the American people. We must all stand against this and oppose funding this illegal war of choice.

@CoryBooker You afraid, Cory? Not surprised you are. You’re a drama queen who has never seen danger or made a difficult decision in your life. Go cry somewhere. P.S. its not escalation it’s war. He’s trying to end it no thanks to you.

Trump’s escalation in Iran is reckless. It is unconstitutional. It is dangerous with consequences both vast and globally destabilizing. Right now, the world is holding its breath - watching, waiting, with many fearing what comes next. Moments like this are why the Senate exists. Not to sit silent. Not to stand down. But to check the abuses of an unrestrained executive. We cannot abdicate that duty. The Senate Majority Leader must choose country over party, summon the Senate back into session, and confront this crisis before it spirals further.

@RepCasar Trump uses hyperbolic language to threaten. The fact that it triggers your weak brain is quite telling. Btw, freaking shave and get a haircut. You look unkempt and gross.

This might be Trump’s most dangerous, unhinged statement yet.

@Durden202024848 @RepCasar This!

@RepCasar You know whats dangerous? Morons that read Trumps words and still believe it litterly. Do you also believe If Trump doesn't surrender to Iran that they bomb U.S allies back to the dark ages?

"A whole civilization will die tonight” are words no President of the United States had ever spoken until this morning. Donald Trump’s behavior is unhinged and making Americans less safe. After a 25-year career in the United States Navy, I have never met or served with anyone who so completely lacks the qualities of good leadership as Donald Trump does. If the President takes the actions he has threatened to take, countless Iranian civilians will die, it will massively escalate this war, and the United States will be seen as a country without a moral or ethical compass. That will make Americans less safe right now and risk the lives of thousands of service members. The consequences will have a lasting and damaging effect on our nation. Trump's mistakes have led us to this perilous moment, but the solution is not to escalate even further. This must stop.

@RepSwalwell You cheat on your wife, committed mortgage fraud and slept with a Chinese spy. Shut up!

The President must be removed. If Congress is too cowardly to do it, his own Cabinet must.

@AOC But, your brain and mental faculties have never functioned and unfortunately you are still blowing off your big mouth. This is your biggest problem….your mouth. Your degree is useless you learned nothing.

This is a threat of genocide and merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing and cannot be trusted. To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat.

@RoKhanna Ro Khanna is a Liberal Socialist stooge.

We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump. Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our constitution and the Geneva Conventions.

@AlanClaffie @RepDonBeyer Really? The proof and not the liberal media accusations. Iran bombed Israeli citizens, hotels in Dubai and Qatar and many more civilian these are verified facts.

@Jan2ap @RepDonBeyer How about that precision strike that wiped out a school full of girls?

The president doesn't know how to end his catastrophic war, so he's resorting to increasingly deranged threats to "obliterate" a country of 90 million people. My Republican colleagues need to come back to DC and vote for a War Powers Resolution to stop this madness.
